    Had the japenese not been spooked by the sugestion it waa a threat(which was cleared up as not being one) it totally could have been adopted nationwide, as it was ready to deploy to their schools.

    And today we have BSD as the basis of Apples OS.

    Microsoft has gone from say 85% market share down to the 60s now I think.

    Maybe we will see a day MS loses to Linux since that hit 10% use last month, and has over 15% use in India.

    MS certainly is not helping themselves win lately.

        Based on what?

        Are you assuming a threshold moment, would happen the same under different circumstances?

        No Desktop only. There were articles about the 10% recently. India has been 15% for a while. Steam Deck and SteamOS seems to have given a boost to Linux adoption in the last 2-3 years
